Microorganisms are very important in the initiation of pulpo-periapical pathosis. Due to the complexity of the root canal system, the mechanical instrumentation of the root canal system should be supplemented with proper canal irrigants and medicaments. It has been revealed that due to the interactions of canal irrigants and medicaments with dentin and contents of the canal system, the antimicr...

OBJECTIVES This study was carried out to examine the effect of application of four different disinfecting agents on the micro-shear bond strength (μ-SBS) of an etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred flat dentin surfaces of human molars were produced by wet grinding the buccal surfaces. Specimens were randomly assigned to five groups according to the d...

O tratamento endodôntico é feito a partir do diagnóstico de uma inflamação irreversível na cavidade pulpar, tratando, assim, o dente com vitalidade (biopulpectomia) para não permitir propagação microrganismos nos tecidos periapicais, evitando infecção. Quando são utilizados líquidos irrigantes indispensável que possuam características biocompatibilidade, antimicrobiana e solvente tecidual. Na s...

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of propolis when used as an intracanal medicament against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 (C. albicans) and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 51299 (E. faecalis) and compare this efficacy to that of Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX). Methods: This study utilised 70 freshly extracted single rooted human teeth. The crowns were section...
